The tips offered in this book fall into two categories:
1. Things you already know if you have a bit of common sense (Example: Fix the toilet if it leaks, or else the water will cost you money)
2. Things that do not make sense (Example: Disassemble you flashlight so you have a place to keep pens in the flashlight cylinder and don't need to buy a pen holder. Keep the flashlight parts somewhere, so you can put it back together in a power outage)
I admit, I am not an expert in frugal living. If you are, perhaps you will find the second category useful. With this book, we were looking to find some advice on how to save money. Out of the "1501 ingenious ways", there were two or three I found I could use. I will donate my copy to the local library. If you are interested in this book, I recommend you follow the advice of another reviewer and check it out from your library first.
